📋 Description

• Own end-to-end delivery of the sensor product portfolio across hardware design, embedded software, signal processing, and verification • Lead a combined engineering organization that includes development managers, senior individual contributors, and early-career staff • Drive execution of the next-generation perimeter intrusion detection platform while sustaining and supporting fielded products through long product lifecycles • Balance new product development against sustaining engineering, field escalations, and manufacturing support, and make the trade-offs explicit • Partner with the systems architect who owns cross-system design authority; own delivery, staffing, and execution • Work with the AI/ML specialist to productionize neural-network-based detection within embedded sensor platforms • Develop people deliberately, including coaching managers and advancing technical and early-career staff • Lead across distributed sites and customer locations • Own planning and roadmap commitments with Product Management, including estimation, resourcing, and make/buy decisions • Oversee design services and documentation interface into manufacturing, including design-for-manufacture and regulatory/compliance requirements • Own quality outcomes, including escalation and resolution of complex field issues spanning hardware, firmware, and installation environments • Establish engineering standards, design review practices, and delivery discipline across hardware and embedded software • Recruit and retain senior engineering talent

🎯 Requirements

• Proven engineering leadership of combined hardware and embedded software teams, including managing other managers • Deep technical grounding in at least one core sensor domain — embedded systems, signal processing, RF, electro-optics/photonics, or electronics design — sufficient to hold credibility with senior specialists in each • Experience delivering physical products end-to-end: concept through design, verification, certification, manufacturing transfer, and field support • Experience with long-lifecycle products where backward compatibility, installed-base support, and reliability are first-order constraints • A track record of developing engineers: growing first-time managers and technical leads, and advancing early-career staff • Demonstrated ability to lead senior individual contributors and to work effectively alongside architect-level peers you do not manage • Experience leading distributed or multi-site engineering teams • Strong delivery and planning discipline: estimation, prioritization, and predictable execution across parallel hardware and software workstreams
